Once the lamerei was cut we immediately noticed there was no distinctive *ring* like there is on cacti. It was just a solid stem. Ok, this is gonna be easy!
Cut the brevicaule just above the roots and stuck him on, taped em up...done!
As you can see in the pics, the scion lifted a bit, but the bond is very solid. I picked up the whole pot by the scion. (Yes, took a big chance, but had to be sure
) I beleive it lifted due to drought. I had it in the propagator with a clear cup covering it, but i think it stayed too dry while curing. It may also be due to the fact we did not bevel the edges of the stock or scion. But i don't see the stock edges curling up...?? however, the center pushed up a bit. The scion looks to have shrunk a bit around it's outter edges. I'm quite sure it'll grow out of it and never been seen once bigger.We plan to do alot more grafting (we have a good 50 of each!) and i'll update this thread with progress reports as we go. I did not take pics of the stems when we cut them, so that will be one thing to update this thread with.
On to the pics!
To give you some idea of size. It's in a 4" pot, the lamerei stem is about 1.25" in diameter and about 3-3.5" tall. The brevicaule is about 0.5-0.75" in diameter and maybe 1" tall.
Over the past week or so, i swear i see the leaves grow overnight!
If your out there.
